Sure, that's not a real word, but the man co-created The Simpsons and co-produced The Drew Carey Show, so he literally does have hundreds of millions.

Unfortunately, Sam was given a cancer diagnosis with only 3-6 months to live. Fortunately, that was back in 2012.

Since then, the stalwart animal lover has been using his fortune to help those who can't help themselves - animals. In addition to doing things like saving horses, he also has funded several wildlife sanctuaries and various other animal causes.

And to think, he used to be known as such an angry guy by his co-workers.

His ex-wife, actress Jennifer Tilly, has been by his side since his diagnosis. She says the change is remarkable:

We're super saddened to hear that Sam Simon, one of three people who created The Simpsons, is fighting colon cancer. At 57, he's way too young to be going through this.

As a writer and producer on the show, he was told by doctors that he has colon cancer last year, and that it has spread. It's now attacking other vital organs, and the battle has gotten tougher. Here's how he explains it:

A poor little 2-year-old pit bull named Axel was recently ATTACKED in Bradenton, Florida, and now, dog lover and co-creator of The SimpsonsSam Simon is offering up a $10K reward to anyone with info on the horrible mishap.

The doggie was found with a 2-inch-deep slash across his head, which led to an immediate surgery. And even though the vet had to remove a piece of Axel's skull due to injury to his sinus cavity, the pup apparently NEVER showed that he was down.

Sam Simon, co-creator of The Simpsons, is taking Pinkberry to court after he says they intentionally sold him a property he planned on using as a non-profit food bank that WASN'T permitted for food product operations!

After realtors SWORE it was permitted for such use, Simon purchased the building for $1.2 million because of amenities for his cause like the food prep area and walk-in freezer.

As it turned out, his new property was only licensed as an "auto repair garage", not food service. In fact, Pinkberry never even obtained proper plumbing, mechanical, and electrical permits!

In retaliation, Sam is suing all alleged guilty parties involved including his realtor, Pinkberry co-founder Shelly Hwang, AND the company through which Pinkberry does business.

It's such a shame Sam even has to go through all of this when he just wanted to improve the lives of the less fortunate!

"Pinkberry has nothing to do with the entity that sold the building to Simon. Pinkberry is not named as a defendant in the lawsuit, and was not an owner or a tenant in the building when it was sold. Pinkberry was not involved in any of the negotiations or the sale of the building.

What is even more concerning is that the story focuses on an "anti-charity" angle, when the truth is that Pinkberry and its people are strong supporters of charities, including the very sort of food bank charity that Mr. Simon generously supports."

Shane Redway -- a Canadian rapper and close friend of Drake's -- was killed early Saturday morning in a car crash. He was just 26 years old.

Redway and two others were killed when their car lost control, struck a guardrail and burst into flames. The crash occurred around 4am outside Pearson International Airport in Toronto. It's unclear who was behind the wheel. Police are investigating the crash.

Drake took to Instagram to remember Redway, posting two different tributes.
